Nick Barrows ignored his sister’s gloating comment as he stared in amazement at the two paintings set up on easels beneath the Barrows Art and Antiquities logo. “Which is precisely why you owe me fifty pounds, oh, ye of little faith.” From her seat on the brown leather couch behind him, Nora snorted with laughter. Alan Moore took Swamp Thing to new heights in the 1980s with his unique narrative approach. Created out of the swamp by a freak accident, Swamp Thing is an elemental creature who uses the forces of nature and wisdom of the plant kingdom to fight the polluted world’s self-destruction. With real-life issues explored against a backdrop of horror, Swamp Thing’s stories became commentaries on environmental, political, and social issues, unflinching in their relevance.
